Gallstones and Grandparents



After another crazy trip to the ER because of gallstones, it was time to have the gallbladder taken out. I had an appt for later on in the week, but it wouldn’t wait…so after 5 years of nursing, I was on the receiving side of medical care. Sure puts things in perspective. My parents were planning on coming that weekend, but I found a way to get them down here earlier with the surgery and of course Nana (Debbi) and Popi (Kenny) didn’t mind…they take every chance they can to spend time with Elliana. Every time my dad comes down, God sees fit to provide a project for him to do. This time it included a broken dryer and washer… Thank you Dad for fixing the dryer and thank you Bost family for providing a “new” washer! Although they did find some problems with my liver that will be followed up on, I am fully recovered from my surgery and feel much much better now that my gallbladder is out. Hopefully I won’t be making any more scenes in the ER lobby… Dad had fun teaching Elliana to play the mandolin and Mom enjoyed giving Elliana a bath. Nana and Popi got Ellie her first jumperoo and had so much fun seeing her discover how it worked! We had a great time with Uncle Davis and Aunt Elaine with Matt experiencing Ryan’s all you can eat buffet for the first time-I think he got his money’s worth…
